Tapatio Blanco (50cl, 40%)

Tapatio Blanco is a tequila from Mexico, made at the La Alteña distillery in the Jalisco highlands. It is produced from 100% blue Weber agave, using traditional methods such as baking the agaves in stone ovens and distilling in small copper stills. After double distillation it rests for six months in stainless steel containers to preserve fresh aromas. The nose is green and spicy, with white beans, white pepper, cloves and cinnamon, followed by black tea and apples, with floral notes, an earthy note of new potatoes and a hint of creaminess. The palate is intense and peppery, with a rush of spices followed by refreshing agave sweetness, while the plant notes recede. The finish is long and spicy, with gentle sweetness as the pepper fades.
